A quick note to keep things as transparent as sunshine:

The two properties highlighted here—Gibraltar and Seaside—are owned and operated by SCL’s American and Bahamian families. Does that make us biased? Yup. Does it make these places any less fabulous? Absolutely not! If anything, it means we’re even more dedicated to ensuring your stay is perfect.

Both properties are among the newest on the Cay, thoughtfully built with high-quality construction and furnishings. Because they’re owner-operated, you’ll find them immaculately clean, meticulously maintained, and designed with an owner’s attention to the details.  We can recommend them without any hesitation as to an exceptional guest experience.

And if you choose stay elsewhere? No worries! There is something for everyone on Staniel Cay, and you’re always a valued part of the Staniel Cay Life community.

  • The boutique hotels on Staniel Cay are the Staniel Cay Yacht Club and Embrace Resort.  In addition to their own cottages on-property, both of these sites also link to their preferred private rental homes.

  • A spectrum of vacation rental cottages, homes and luxury villas – ranging from accommodations for 1 person to 16 guests, and a variety of price points – can be found on VRBO or AirBnB, and many have their own websites as well available through Google searches.

  • PRO TIP: Staniel Cay is small, less than 2 miles square.  So, if your Staniel Cay search results include any property that says it is 5 miles away, that is likely NOT Staniel Cay!  For whatever reason, Staniel Cay search results often include properties from Black Point (our neighboring island, 5 miles away) or even mainland Exuma (35-55 miles away).
